Silhouette

You gotta laugh or else you'll cry
We gotta live, at least to try
A cigarette, an empty chair
You were my friend, the best I have
And you played it all on an old guitar

A silhouette with truth to tell
On everyone you cast your spell
You'd never leave all the friends you love
As they came along to call your bluff

But you traded all for an old guitar
And it was something special

Yeah
I'm sorry, so sorry
It had to end this way
But don't worry, and no worries
I'll take my turn one day

You had to leave, we say goodbye
You made us laugh, you made us cry
But you saved us all with that old guitar
And hung it all on a faded star

Never believe we'd come this far
But it was something special

(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)
(Ho-oh-oh, oh)
(Ho-oh-oh, oh)

All you had was that old guitar
When heaven called you to the stars
I'd never believed we'd come this far

You gotta laugh, or else you'll cry
We gotta live, at least to try
Now all that's left is an old guitar
